4、ce of ISA toward the goal of uniformity in the field of instrumentation. To be of real value, it should not be static, but should be subject to periodic review. Toward this end, the Society welcomes all comments and criticisms and asks that they be addressed to the Standards and Practices Board Secr

5、etary, ISA, 67 Alexander Drive, P.O. Box 12277, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina 27709, e-mail: standardsisa.org.The ISA Standards and Practices Department is aware of the growing need for attention to the metric system of units in general, and the International System of Units (SI) in particu

6、lar, in the preparation of instrumentation standards. The Department is further aware of the benefits to users of ISA Standards in the USA of incorporating suitable references to the SI (and the metric system) in their business and professional dealings with other countries. Toward this end, this De

7、partment will endeavor to introduce SI and SI-acceptable metric units as optional alternatives to English units in all new and revised standards to the greatest extent possible. The Metric Practice Guide, which has been published by the American Society for Testing and Materials as ASTM E380-72 (ANS

8、I Z210-1973), and future revisions, will be the reference guide for definitions, symbols, abbreviations and conversion factors.It is the policy of ISA to encourage and welcome the participation of all concerned individuals and interests in the development of ISA Standards. Participation in the ISA s

9、tandards-making process by an individual in no way constitutes endorsement by the employer of that individual of ISA or any of the standards which ISA develops. This Standard supersedes ISA Tentative Recommended Practice RP37.1-1963, which was developed by ISA Subcommittee 8A/RP37.1 (M.E. Binkley, H

10、.N. Norton, T.A. Peris, and A.A. Zuehlke) between 1960 and 1963 to fill a need for standardized transducer nomenclature and specification terminology required, at that time, primarily by the aerospace industry.As production techniques of electrical transducers advanced, associated measuring techniqu

11、es and systems became more established, and as new transducer designs became more readily available, they found increasing applications in all industries and sciences in addition to those types of transducers already in widespread use. Hence, it became necessary for ISA to develop uniform transducer

12、 nomenclature and terminology for use in as many technological fields as possible.Using RP37.1-1963 as a starting point, Committee SP37 (consisting of the chairmen of Standards Committees on individual transducer types as well as the cognizant Standards Director) created a draft version of new S37.1

13、 which was mailed to a large review board, representing a wide variety of fields, in 1968. The results of this review indicated the general acceptability of the new Standard to most industries, sciences, and educational institutions. Numerous suggestions for improvements and clarifications were also

14、 received by the Committee. Each comment was evaluated, and suitable revisions were made with Committee concurrence. The preparation of this Standard was coordinated with the government-sponsored Inter-Range Instrumentation Group (IRIG) as well as with ISA Committee SP51 (Measurement 3.1.2 A first m

20、, the omission of modifiers should proceed in the order opposite to sequence shown in 3.1 whenever possible.Examples: 1) “Procurement of 150 potentiometric linear-displacement transducers of various ranges has been initiated.“2) “Bulletin 0-0-400 describes our capacitive liquid-level transducers.“3)
